confirmation box will appear.

Once the system drive initialization is started, it
should not be aborted.

Drive screen.
An initialization status screen will be displayed, with the initialization
progress of each drive included in the operation.

dependent upon the size of the drive and the RAID
level specified for the drive. Therefore, some system
drives will initialize more quickly than others.

have to restart and complete a full initialization before
using the drive.

displayed. Press any key to return to the Main menu.
